Normally I wouldn't care about stuff like that, but I think this team is somewhat sensitive to things like that.
GH's foul, intentional or not, is going to be a major distraction for the next three weeks, or however long we've got left to play. The media is going to pick us apart -- it's already happening, with Forde and Tudor and ESPN Radio -- and nothing good comes of that. Even if you're able to brush it off, you still hear it.
I like absolutely nothing about the situation we're in right now.
